1995 Chronicle Books hardcover, Arthur Watterson Hoppe (The Tiddling Tennis Theorem). In this sly memoir, Arthur Hoppe, syndicated columnist for the San Francisco Chronicle, reveals the stories behind the stories he has been writing for almost fifty years.
This book is a memoir, written in a humorous and satirical way. It lets you travel back in time for quite a few decades. You'll gain a lot from this book. Amongst other insights, you'll find that presidential campaigns where almost as crazy 50 or 60 years ago as they are today. I said ALMOST!--Actually, there is no need for me to repeat the book description and tell you more. So I'll only say that I HAD A WONDERFUL TIME reading this book, and I promise that you will, too. Get this book, sit down, relax, and enjoy!
P.S. I wish I had discovered Arthur Hoppe when he was writing newspaper columns. I am sure I would have enjoyed each one of his essays.
